I'm jealous! I wish I still had the bass my Mom bought me even though it was pretty terrible!![]()
My first bass was pretty crappy. But when my parents saw that I was getting serious with the bass, playing in bands, and considering going to music school after high school, they bought me a great bass that lasted me for over 2 decades. My mom was a piano player and my father played trumpet so my parents had an appreciation for having a good piece of equipment to play. I will never sell it, even if I play something else more, too much sentimental value.
